v3.0 UPDATE!!
I've managed to do what several of you have asked for: here's a complete overhaul of this mod, now using the Indra Menu Hook instead of Texmod.
You're welcome. :D
(If you prefer to use Texmod, look for v2.1 in the Files section, under Older Versions. It has a bunch of extra hi-res textures for the environment as well, which would have been too much work to include in the Menu Hook version.)


Additional credits:
natla.drm: Uses the short-haired Natla model by Superbass432, with my textures.

Thank you for giving me permission to use it!

How to use:
Uses the Indra Menu Hook, so make sure you have that installed first.
https://github.com/TheIndra55/TRAE-menu-hook/releases/tag/v1.16
Then just copy any/all of these files into 'mods' in your installation folder.

I also recommend using my Atlantis '96 Texture Pack for the full experience
(even though it uses Texmod, which I know a lot of you hate):

TRA '96 Pack v2.1 Update!
My mod has been doing better than I expected, so I decided to share some new stuff. A huge thank you to everyone who gave it a try!
New in this version (Extras.tpf):
- Remade the textures for the Peruvian guide, now he looks as much as possible like the guy in the original.
- Added new, sharper icons for the Pistols & Medipacks, plus some new water FX - more detailed wet texture on Lara and better ripples!
- I changed the sky for Late Night Recon to include the orange sunset like in the original FMV. And now Natla's carpet is blue.
- The scion is now green in 'Introducing Natla.'

v2.0 Update
Wow this is a big one. It started out as v1.13 with smaller changes (.50Cal Pistols icon & ammo textures, medipacks etc), but then I kept working and it turned into a larger package where I ended up adding a third file to the .rar that includes the textures for Kid & Kold!
The new version includes:
-Kid got a complete overhaul, he has blonde hair now and his classic outfit with a blue striped white T-shirt+black hat! :)
-Kold is as close to his original look as I could get him. He has a moustache, wider eyebrows, gray pants+buttons on his shirt.
-Lara's shades have red glasses & a bronze rim.
-The .50 Caliber Pistols icon now has the blue N & the ammo has the red stripe.
-The medipacks have the red + instead of *.
-The Journal has the cover of a passport.

v1.12 Updates:
A few more minor updates, including:
-Refined Lara's hairline, as well as the wrinkles and color of her top and boots. Now I feel like I got the right tone for them.
-Replaced the Automatic Pistols' icon with a new, sharper one that has the red lines!
-Fixed the brighter line in the middle of Natla's forehead.

v1.1 Updates:

Made a few updates since the original release. These include:
-Updated Natla's shirt+made her cuffs black like her collar.
-Pierre's hair is darker, more prominent.
-Larson's belt buckle is now silver.
-The Automatic Pistols now have the red streak.
-Updated textures for 'Introducing Natla' incl. floor tiles, chairs & tablet.

v1.0

Larson has a major update to his textures to look as close to his '96 version as possible.
  • He now has ginger hair, red shirt, blue jeans and a vest like in the original game.
  • I completely repainted his hair+arm textures & refined all of his textures.
  • This version doesn't have the bootstraps on the legs like my other upload.
Pierre had more limitations because of the 3D model but I tried to bring him as close to his original model as possible.
  • He now has the classic goatee+sideburns & a buzzcut instead of a clean shave.
  • Removed the gloves. The jacket has the gold zippers+the ugly vest under it.
I made a few subtle changes to Lara & Natla's textures.
  • Lara now has improved eyebrows and lashes + more subtle shadows on her face.
  • I also made her showlaces red, put a yellow band in her hair and added the holes to her gloves.
  • Her shirt has better detail and folds. Her shorts now have a hem to look like they are rolled up.
  • Natla's collar is now black and her shirt covers up her bellybutton.
  • I softened her make-up and made her vampy nails shorter.
There are a few more Easter eggs like the magazine cover in the intro.
Enjoy! :)
